 Media, Power and Global Capitalism: A Critical Analysis Media is not just a means of conveying information; it is a highly influential instrument of social, political and economic power.Whether local or global, a natural tendency of the media is to present those in power as special and unique. Politicians, large corporations or cultural figures who are at the top are often seen by the media as unique and indispensable. This creates a perception among the general public that power and influence are concentrated in particular individuals and that this is normal. The influence of the global media goes even deeper.It does not just report news, but also promotes capitalist ideas as normal and acceptable. Large companies, technology giants and international investment institutions are presented as modern, progressive and indispensable forces. As a result, the market economy, personal success and consumerism are accepted as social norms.For example, the innovative products and billion-do...

 Ordinary Students vs. Privileged Students: Reality in Educational Institutions There are two types of students in educational institutions: privileged students and ordinary students. Superficially, it seems that privileged students are always ahead, play a leading role in the class, and attract the attention of the teacher. However, the reality is much more complex. The institutional structure, bias, and the process of privilege affect the position of students. Ordinary students often want to move on their own individual path, but their strengths are never revealed due to the institutional structure. Ordinary students go beyond the institutional boundaries and ask deep and abnormal questions. They do not just seek the right answer, but rather pursue depth of understanding and new perspectives. Such questions can be challenging for the teacher and sometimes cause fatigue or annoyance. In contrast, privileged students usually ask questions in accordance with the teacher's preference...

 The Way Iceland Captures Carbon Carbon capture project of Iceland: Iceland has recently launched one of the world's largest direct air capture capacities. The prime objective of this technology is to directly divert carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Swiss company Climeworks and Icelandic carbon storage company Carbfix are playing a vital role in developing and managing this kind of technology. How it functions – The plant pulls in ambient air using a big fan. ⬇️ Special chemical filters separate CO₂ from the air and hold it. ⬇️ Collected CO₂ is mixed with water and then sent underground. ⬇️ It is then injected into the basalt rock layer. ⬇️ It permanently transforms into a rock mineral within a couple of years. ⬇️ This method is considered to be an almost permanent form of carbon storage. ©দ্বীন সাঈদীন

 গবেষণায় Sampling Strategy : Probability Sampling এর ক্যাটাগোরাইজেশন Sampling strategy মানে হলো গবেষণা বা সমীক্ষায় কোন জনগোষ্ঠী (population) থেকে কিভাবে এবং কাদেরকে নমুনা (sample) হিসেবে নেওয়া হবে তার পরিকল্পনা বা পদ্ধতি। গবেষণায় Sampling strategy গুরুত্বপূর্ণ একটি বিষয়। আপনার কোয়ানটিটেটিভ রিসার্চের জন্য ডাটা কালেকশন প্রয়োজন সেজন্য পপুলেশন এর থেকে আপনার টার্গেটেট গ্রুপ অব পিপল সিলেক্ট করে কিভাবে ডাটা কালেকশন করবেন তার প্রক্রিয়াকে Sampling strategy বলে। Sampling মূলত ২ ভাগে বিভক্ত: Probability এবং Non Probability। Probability Sampling এর ক্যাটাগোরাইজেশন Sampling Probability sampling বলতে বুঝায় যেখানে পপুলেশনের প্রতিটি সদস্যের নির্বাচিত হওয়ার একটি নির্দিষ্ট সম্ভাবনা থাকে। ধরুন একটি এলাকায় একশটি কৃষক পরিবার আছে। ময়মনসিংহ কৃষি বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ের একজন অধ্যাপক আমন ধানের উপর এক বছরের ফলন এর উপর গবেষণা করবেন। কিন্তু তাঁর প্রয়োজন ৫০ জন সেম্পল। সেক্ষেত্রে তিনি ১০০ জন থেকে ৫০ জন কৃষককে সেম্পল হিসেবে রেন্ডমলি বেছে নিলেন। এখানে প্রতিটি কৃষকের নির্বাচিত হবার সম্ভাবনা ছিল। কিন্তু এই ৫০ জনই তাঁর গবেষ...
